5. Smith - position is safe but is his personality right for it? No more toilet incidents and he might have a shot.no more?....wasn't it one incident 6 years ago?
since then he's been a in the AB's senior leadership group and captain of his super team, also meets my personal criteria of one of the first names on the team sheet so has to have a decent claim doesn't he?

@mariner4life dont judge, the plan might just involve letting everyone think we dont know how to handle it for 5 years!

It's the AB version of the Warriors 'we are the fittest we have ever been'.

that made me genuinely snort. Well done sir.
There was even a time that I believed that shit when teams spouted it in preseason.

So Blackadder looks to be ruled out of the squad now. Will be interesting to see where they go. Either Jacobsen becomes the everyman loosie or in a show of innovation Cane does.
Akira to start with Cane moving to 6 later and DP coming on?For all the talk about BBBR no longer being 'BB' are we just assuming that Whitelock can lift further? Nothing about him screamed 'pick me' last night.

Whitelock got a few key lineout steals, made tackles and hit rucks, pretty much what you want your lock to be doing. Agree he is not the presence in the loose he once was but if he is doing the core role well and leading by example then that is good for me given the current locking stocks. Savea / Cane / Akira with Sotutu and SB on the bench for me.

Seems we aren't seeing that for 6 weeks.
Sidelined with undisclosed medical issue.

Oh, I hadn't caught up with that news. If Cane's knee takes a bad turn we could be seeing Ardie back at 7 and Sotutu at 8

Just saw it now.
Big blow: Blues star set to miss playoffs, in doubt for All Blacks
Exclusive: The Blues are set to be without one of their stars for the rest of the season.
